Ingredients
This recipe requires the following ingredients:
-225g (7.9 oz) of butter, softened
-225g (7.9 oz) of caster sugar
-225g (7.9 oz) of self-raising flour
-Zest of 2 lemons
-Juice of 1 lemon
-2 Tablespoons of caster sugar
Instructions
To make this cake, start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and line an 8-inch (20cm) round cake tin with baking parchment.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and caster sugar until pale and creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well between each addition. Gradually add the self-raising flour, mixing until just combined. Finally, stir in the lemon zest.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared tin and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Once the cake is cooked, leave it to cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. In a small bowl, mix together the lemon juice and caster sugar to make the drizzle topping. Once the cake is cool, spoon the drizzle over the top of the cake.
